Rounding out 2023 and onto 2024.

Left Darby, Montana and the Westfest Gathering and rode to Kalispel to have dinner with GS gal who is another ADV rider. Very nice meeting her and talking about South America and south Africa. Monday July 25th said goodbye to Sasquatch and his dad! Had a great time...

Had a great time at Westfest in Darby Montana. Rolled into Westfest and Set up Camp. Lots of KTM's on this side.... FLArider1 showing up on his way back from Prudhoe bay (from Key West). I stayed at Andy and Angies house in Florida while he was in Alaska, and we get...

Headed out of Boise with Sasquatch and his Dad! Both riding Triumph Tigers. Have enjoyed my time getting to know them and riding with them. It has been a big blessing!! Jay sets the pace and leads the way to Darby. I feel Alive as we ride the twisties along the...

Rode into Boise this morning to see Sasquatch and get my suspension beefed up for the journey ahead! We rode down to his shop to get started on a complete update on the Rear Shock, and from forks. Jay knows Suspensions and how to make them right. Jumped right in and...

Woke up early this morning and our Cat Holly was looking at me wondering where I am going now As I get my bike set up, a real critical comfort item is the seat. I had made an appointment right after I bought the 800GS. Having had a custom seat made for my 1150GSA I...

Another day working on the details of the new bike. Still thinking about the placement of the Rotopax extra 1 gallon Gasoline containers. Really leaning to having them on the back of the Gobi bags. Most visible place on the bike from behind, out of my way as a rider,...

Have spent the past few days Farkling the bike with all the stuff for a big ride. Skid plate, New luggage racks, crash bars, various other item, then wiring up for GPS, Radar, Lights, Heated gear, Ipod remote etc..... Also had to return my Spot connect to REI. In the...

Arrived back in Portland last night and got to my house about midnight. Since I leased my house out. I sleep in my office area. Since I have been on the road it is fine with me! Woke up at 6am.... Then Got to work. Lots of parts have arrived for the new F800GS....

Yesterday riding through Georgia enroute to Atlanta stopped at a Fruit Stand and bought a Georgia Peach from a Georgia Peach July 13th. Maintenance day. 6,000 miles in the ride so far, so time to do the 6K service. Marty drove me over to get oil, filter etc at Blue...

July 11th. Sunrise in Fort Myers area. Last night Naples had 1" of rain at midnight. But it had cleared by morning. checked out Sanibel Island. Many of these places in south Florida are "resort" vacation places. Where you would come with family or with friends, stay...
